Beachfront holiday rental in Marathon

Beautiful ocean views and great local recommendations from the host! Some aspects of the interior were a bit dated, but with multiple areas to enjoy the outdoors (offering full shade to full sun and everything in between), we didn't do much inside except sleep. Kids spent hours per day in the pool and adults most enjoyed lounging on the jetty with 345 degrees of ocean views. Board games (and a ps3) were available for the occasional down time. The location allows for a feeling of privacy on the ocean while offering many hidden gems for dining and activities nearby.

We stayed in two smaller house boats while we were there before brads. Rectangular shaped single stories with a flat roof area for lounging. They were beautiful.. but unstable, uncomfortable, limited in space, no hot water, had to shower 200 yards away, awful mosquitos, no reliable internet, lack of kitchen ability, I’m 32 my wife is 30 and our son was five months. Pretty looking, but miserable. Especially if wind wasn’t below 5mph. Not to mention the toilets had problems on both! When we got to brads house boat Holly Cow! What a difference. What a relief. Multiple rooms, comfortable beds, no issues with hot water or internet or kitchen. The space was excessive. Very comfortable. Needed some TLC inside but overall it was fantastic. Everything worked like a real 2br 3ba home. I will book this boat everytime as long as it lives. Private marina, quiet, great neighboring boats. Private outdoor waterfront recreational areas. 100% best key west experience I’ve had and I go every year.

Great place to stay for family vacation or guys fishing trip. Plenty of dock space to park the boat and easy access to the Atlantic. House is clean and all amenities worked as they should. Would definitely recommend to a family or friend. Mary was a great host who provided all information without even requesting it.

Rachel’s home is so beautiful and relaxing. The area is perfect. We had such a nice time! My daughter has pet allergies, and she had no issues at all the two days she joined us because it was so spotless and clean.

Great stay, we all enjoyed our mini vacation. This place is excellent. This is our 2nd time visiting this house and we loved it. Definitely we're coming back.

Beautiful home, we come down to fish and dive, couldn't be a better location to keep our boat and get offshore quickly. Everything is within 5 minutes of the home and the bait shop and ice is at the end of the street. Super convenient. Public boat ramp is a 5 minute boat ride away. Definitely recommend

Fantastic stay, and a fantastic host! They went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay and the location was great, home was cute, clean and well maintained. The property was beautiful and meticulously cared for with amazing views and fun outdoor activities including kayaks, paddle boards, corn hole and "harmless" hatchet throwing! Definitely would visit again

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Tiny Home. Everything was described perfectly and Oh So Peaceful! Which is what we were after. It was like being in the country back home but with a beautiful water view and green mangroves! We kayaked around and fished from the dock. The sea breeze under the Palms was just what I was hoping for! We are big college softball fans, so we were able to watch the championship series from the TV and relax in the evenings. I hope someday to return for some R&R again! Thanks for being a wonderful host!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolute Paradise in the Heart of the Keys! Our stay at this vacation house in Marathon was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had found our own private slice of paradise. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the comforts of home—plus the added bonus of breathtaking ocean views and island vibes. The location couldn’t have been better. Tucked away in a peaceful part of Marathon, we were just minutes from everything—the beach, boat rentals, amazing restaurants, and the iconic Seven Mile Bridge. The property itself was incredibly well-equipped: a fully stocked kitchen, super comfortable beds, high-speed WiFi. What really made this place stand out was the outdoor space. The private dock was perfect for fishing and sunset cocktails, and the pool made it hard to ever want to leave. We even spotted dolphins just off the dock one morning—unreal! The hosts were friendly, responsive, and went out of their way to make sure we

We came down for a weeks vacation brought two boats, plenty of space on the docks. Communication with Meredith was great. Great location.

We enjoyed our stay very much. He was always very responsive and took care of anything we needed. Might be coming back another time in the future.

We had a great week at Kari's place. We were blown away by the view from the terrace. The apartment was well appointed and had everything we needed. The use of the nearby Cabana club was a real bonus. Colony Key is about an hour from Key West, so it was well located for all sorts of activities. Would love to return one day. Thanks Kari.

Omg what can’t I say about the house. Beautiful! Very friendly neighborhood. Extremely clean and beautifully maintained. The host were available and responded so quickly. We loved it and will be back! Thank you so much for sharing paradise with us!

My family and I really enjoyed this home the pictures do not do it justice it’s beautiful. The owners are very responsive and we were even able to check in a day early ! The canal was awesome , a boat is a must and so much fun. We saw manatees and iguanas. The private pool was fun all together a great experience.

We had a wonderful family vacation getaway at Katie and Cody’s place. The house was very clean, and the location is great as well with accessibility to food, Publix, and great beaches. Our favorite aspect of the house was the small pool. Our teenagers played in it endlessly, and when they were gone we enjoyed relaxing on the pool floats. Communication with Katie was top notch. She always responded quickly and had great follow through with any issues we had. they definitely go above and beyond to provide resources of fun activities and resteraunts in the area. We would definitely stay here again!

The place was amazing!! plenty of room for our family of 5. All of the fishing equipment was awesome!! From the rods and tackle, to the deep freezer with bait, the extras made the whole trip more enjoyable. Loved the house. It was perfect!!! Will definately be back in the future!! 10 out of 10 would recommend!!

Everything was excellent. Only complaint would be the bicycles. One bike was usable but the seat was loose and we didn’t have tools to fix it. The other adult bike’s chain was rusted so bad it wasn’t usable. We still had an excellent experience.

Beautiful clean inviting home! Comfortable and felt right at home. Our family had a great vacation here! Location was perfect for our stay as our family loves to Scuba dive, snorkel, fish, explore museums and nature and just relaxing and eating out.

Beautiful place. Extremely peaceful! We enjoyed all the iguanas outside the fence.

We have three boys and they LOVED being able to fish anytime they wanted. We caught over 12 species of fish from the back dock. The kayaks were very handy! We just rented two more and We loved getting out in the mornings for a family kayaking adventure and the boys fished any chance they got. They even caught a nurse shark! The house was clean and well decorated. There were handy items such as sunscreen and life vests. It was a great place for a family of five.

Cute spacious condo. Loved the big balcony and patio furniture. Pamela sent lots of local food and attractions recommendations. Our flight was delayed and she went over and turned lights on so we would be able to see when we arrived at what turned into 3 am. The pool was nice and the view beautiful. Sunset beach was walking distance and we enjoyed every night. Would stay again if we do go back and visit the Florida Keys.

Susan’s place was exactly as described. The water view from the top deck was a wonderful place to have my cup of coffee every morning. I would highly recommend this place.

Loved our week-long stay at Marjorie’s! As pictured and described. Checked out the other reviews for useful tips.
